I believe one of the most vital things an english tutor can do for their student is to be organised and provide well-structured lessons. It is also crucial for a tutor to motivate and encourage their student while being honest and providing constructive feedback to support their growth. My greatest strength as a tutor is my ability to break down…

As I recently graduated I can understand the pressure that is being faced every day so I would make sure that the student studies a topic with a cool mind rather than studying in a panic mood. I would like them to study everything in a smart way rather studying everything in a hard way. I also believe while studying the student should know what is…

help them get to where they want without burdening them with the information that we understand well but the student may be struggling with. I believe tutors are just the extension of the student and that we should adapt to help them reach their potential.

I believe an english tutor should be able to explain things clearly and stop the flow of teaching when necessary if a student needs to revise a difficult concept, as I believe it is better to know the concepts now rather than leave those areas to remain unclarified and which can and does affect students come a test or exam day. I believe that a…

Building confidence in a student is the most important thing for an english tutor. In another way, a student can realise his or her capacity to solve a problem and be confident in it despite failing several times. Working with kids helps me to understand and communicate effectively throughout a lesson, which are key elements in tutoring.…

Needless to say, students, especially those in their teenage years tend to struggle with their hormones and volatile emotions. The best an english tutor can do is to never give up on a student and be understanding of their situation. Once that trust is built, it creates a healthier and more productive space for learning. In my opinion, a great…

Thank you Jeff. My son seemed very happy after your tutoring today!

Inside Long ForestTutoring Sessions

Content Covered

Year 7 student Sam focused on applying the area formulas for various shapes and practiced using Pythagoras' Theorem to solve right-angled triangle problems.

In Year 10, Emily worked through interpreting displacement-time and velocity-time graphs as well as solving equations of motion for constant acceleration, including calculations with F = ma.

Meanwhile, Year 11 student Alex reviewed exothermic and endothermic reactions in chemistry, balanced chemical equations, and explored the construction and function of galvanic cells.

Recent Challenges

A Year 10 student struggled to show working in division problems when converting fractions to decimals, leading to confusion in multi-step questions; as the tutor observed, "the process is not shown," which made error-tracing difficult.

In Year 12 Biology, one student hesitated to answer follow-up questions and rarely used correct terminology—he needed repeated prompting before attempting explanations on topics like cellular respiration.

Meanwhile, a Year 7 maths student consistently avoided writing out calculations, instead doing them mentally and seeking constant reassurance rather than building independent confidence.

Homework was often incomplete or forgotten, especially among Years 8–9 students tackling percentage and factorisation tasks.

Recent Achievements

One Long Forest tutor noticed a big change in a Year 10 student who used to stay quiet during biology sessions; now, she's actively asking questions when confused and taking her own notes on tricky topics.

In Year 12 chemistry, another student has started arriving with self-prepared notes and takes initiative by attempting all homework before the lesson—something she previously skipped if unsure.

Meanwhile, a Year 3 learner who often lost her place while reading longer passages was able to read out loud and answer comprehension questions for an entire story without drifting off or skipping words.

Local Spots for Tutoring

If you'd prefer not to have lessons at home, tutoring can also take place at a local library—such as Lederderg Library—or at your child's school (with permission), like Arnolds Creek Primary School.
